"Politically Correct"
 "The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made." Groucho Marx.

"The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ." Acts 4:26

"It is an unquestionable truth, that the body of the people in every country desire sincerely its prosperity. But it is equally unquestionable that they do not possess the discernment and stability necessary for systematic government. To deny that they are frequently led into the grossest of errors, by misinformation and passion, would be a flattery which their own good sense must despise." Alexander Hamilton (speech to the Ratifying Convention of New York, June 1788) Reference: The Works of Alexander Hamilton, Henry Cabot Lodge, ed., II, 42.

Public Schools Teach the ABCs of Islam By Erick Stakelbeck - Muslims discovered America? Or that Jerusalem is an Arab city? That's just some of the "history" that students in America's K-12 classrooms have been taught in recent years--with the help of taxpayer money.

"You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time." Abraham Lincoln

“We are apt to be deluded into false security by political catch-words, devised to flatter rather than instruct.” James A. Garfield

"Politically Correct" means using unrighteous deception and requires a lack of Biblical Moral Virtue. Being "Politically Correct" is not only foolish, but dangerous.

They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hears them. 1 John 4:5

(See also Discipline: Judging & Reproof)

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Psalms 2:15

Politically Correct: (American Heritage Dictionary): "Of, relating to, or supporting broad social, political, and educational change, especially to redress historical injustices in matters such as race, class, gender, and sexual orientation."

Hate Crimes Legislation: The Politically Correct Way to Silence People of Faith  By Shaun Waymire - The Canadian Broadcast Standards Council stated: "In Canada, we respect freedom of speech, but we don't worship it." That's Canadian lingo for intolerance of pro-heterosexual programming on its airwaves. Americans beware, this growing animosity of religious viewpoints is spreading to the United States. In fact, homosexual activists have made great progress in pushing their agenda here at home and convincing the media and large numbers of Americans that homosexuality is genetic. Moreover, the Democratic Party eagerly pushes hate crimes and gender-orientation "discrimination" legislation through local, state, and national legislatures that threatens the First Amendment rights of pro-family individuals, businesses, and tax-exempt organizations.

Minister Joe Wright - This event actually happened in the Kansas House in Topeka on January 23, 1996. At the time, Joe Wright was the pastor of Central Christian Church in Wichita and was House guest chaplain that day. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new House session, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard:

Heavenly Father,

We come before You today to ask Your Forgiveness and seek Your direction and guidance.

We know Your Word says, ''Woe to those who call evil good,'' but that's exactly what we have done.

We have lost our Spiritual equilibrium and inverted our values.

We confess that we have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it pluralism;

We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism;

We have endorsed perversion and called it an alternative lifestyle;

We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery;

We have neglected the needy and called it self preservation;

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare;

We have killed our unborn and called it choice;

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable;

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem;

We have abused power and called it political savvy;

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition;

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression;

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

 

Search us, O God, and know our hearts today; try us and see if there be some wicked way in us; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent here by the people of this state and who have been ordained by You, to govern this great state of Kansas. Grant them your wisdom to rule and may their decisions direct us to the center of Your Will.

I ask in in the name of your Son, The Living Savior, Jesus Christ.

The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer in protest. In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright was pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding negatively. The church has received international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa, and Korea.

The Word of God

Psalms 5:9  - For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

Psalms 36:1-4 - The transgression of the wicked says within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flatters himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good. He devises mischief upon his bed; he sets himself in a way that is not good; he abhors not evil.

Psalms 52:1-4 – Why do you boast yourself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endures continually. Thy tongue devises mischief; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. Thou love evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah. Thou love all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.

Proverbs 20:17 - Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

Proverbs 28:23 - He that rebukes a man afterwards shall find more favor than he that flatters with the tongue.

Jeremiah 9:1-9 - Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people! Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men. And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, says the LORD. Take ye heed every one of his neighbor, and trust ye not in any brother: for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will walk with slanders. And they will deceive everyone his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity. Your habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, says the LORD. Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, Behold, I will melt them, and try them; for how shall I do for the daughter of my people? Their tongue is as an arrow shot out; it speaks deceit: one speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in heart he lays his wait. Shall I not visit them for these things? says the LORD: shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

Matthew 10: 13-14 - Every plant, which my heavenly Father has not planted, shall be rooted up. Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

Colossians 2:4,8 - And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

1 Timothy 6:1-5 - Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort. If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

2 Timothy 3 - This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me. Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

2 Timothy 4:1-4 - I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

2 Peter 2:1-3 - But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily (clandestinely) shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation slumbers not.

Jude 14-19 - And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaks great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.  These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

“During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.” George Orwell

“Everything that deceives may be said to enchant.” Plato

"Politically Correct" - Taking advantage of apathetic citizens by using the art of redefining words (like family and marriage), and using deceptive catch phrases like a corrupt salesman and disguising the "fine print," undermining the Constitution and Amendments and abusing the rights and liberty of law abiding, morally just citizens. This, all in an effort to replace a liberty that comes from God to a redefinition of “civil” or “unalienable rights” as mandated by a politically correct socialist nanny-state government and thwarts Jefferson’s foundation of how those “Rights” are to be “entitled,” by "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God."

Examples: "Separation of Church and State," selective Freedom of Speech (moral virtue scorned with contempt, otherwise decadence would hinder those who are "progressive"),  abolishing the electoral college, attacks against the Second Amendment....all being promoted by a willing "mainstream" media.

"Politically Correct," or how to cry discrimination in order to gain "special" rights for an immoral minority which actually discriminates against the majority, or specifically legislating the silencing of Judeo-Christians. When you hear or see the word "discrimination" used by Congress, a State legislator, or judge, beware, moral "civil" rights are being violated.

"Politically Correct" - The "new and improved" Secular Humanist Dictionary, where the need to redefine words for political correctness which requires processing through the filter of misapplied compassion that lacks moral virtue and righteous justice: When you hear, mainstream, fairness, diversity, tolerance, discrimination, hate, fear, bigotry, progressive, values, etc. compare the "new and improved" Secular Humanist Dictionary with Webster's - actually a little effort using common sense will suffice. (See Politically Correct Dictionary below.)

"But it is meant to show how so many things that look one way are in fact diametrically the opposite when you take a closer look at them -- and especially if you look at them systematically instead of just in terms of what rhetoric sets off your emotions, which is what seems to be going on in both parties these days."  An Interview with Thomas Sowell

Biblical moral virtue - The words that can never be redefined. What ever we may say or do... and regardless of what liberals think, the Scriptures will never be "outdated" unless Jesus lied.

"Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away." Matthew 24:35
"...the scripture cannot be broken; John 10:35

Note and challenge to secular humanist: See Theocracy? before inadequately and falsely dismissing these pages as promoting theocracy. Numerous blog discussions and commentaries have weakly dismissed the HISTORY presented here by simply claiming EarsToHear.net is promoting a theocracy which is a lame excuse used to escape and avoid answering this challenge: What new and improved wisdom do secular liberal humanists use to justify violating "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God," which was the foundation of America's Founders? Do secular liberal humanists adhere to any boundaries? If so, what is the foundation for establishing those boundaries, if not "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God?" Consider also these warnings from past leaders.

Note to conservatives: When growing weary in upholding moral virtue, consider again the Patriot's Declaration July 4, 2008.

“There is no maxim in my opinion which is more liable to be misapplied, and which therefore needs elucidation than the current one that the interest of the majority is the political standard of right and wrong.” James Madison

Congressmen Waffle on Dr. King's 'Moral Law' View In his famous 1963 "Letter from Birmingham Jail," the late Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., told fellow pastors and the world that valid laws are those that reflect God's law or moral code, and unjust laws, which do not reflect God's law, should not be obeyed. "I would agree with St. Augustine that an 'unjust law is no law at all,'" wrote King. "Now what is the difference between the two? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law." On the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. King, Cybercast News Service asked several members of Congress if they agreed with his view that man's laws must comport with the laws of God. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, said the idea King expressed was "the fundamental notion of civil disobedience." "Any individual has to make their judgment about those things - and suffer consequences according to the civil laws of the community, too," said Kerry. "That's why it's called civil disobedience." (Listen to Audio) - Kerry said he thought King's letter was "a remarkably eloquent and important document." But when asked whether there is a moral basis for not obeying laws that don't comport with God's law, Kerry suggested that morality is relative. "It doesn't make it legitimate," Kerry said, "but there can be a moral basis. Individuals have different determinations of what's moral and what isn't." Kerry agreed that some people would say that laws creating same-sex marriage don't reflect God's law, are immoral and, therefore, unjust. "Some would - and they have a right to make their decision," said Kerry. "Everybody has a right to make their decision about all laws. Our Founding Fathers essentially did that, too."

 

EarsToHear.net commentary: As a deeply disturbed constituent of Senator's Kennedy and Kerry, and Representative John Olver, I have repeatedly asked all three to enlighten me as to their foundation, their basis for determining the boundaries of how civil, "unalienable Rights" are to be "entitled." what new and improved wisdom do they proclaim which supersedes that of  America's Founding Document, where the boundaries for how "Rights" are to be "entitled" are if they do not violate "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God." I have yet to receive a response that defines their secular humanistic liberal foundation or basis of their "politically correct" definition of  morality if not that of the Holy Scriptures, from which America's founders based our founding Document, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, regardless any all the false claims otherwise based upon facts, writings, and warnings of our founders.
 

For the mystery of the one without Torah is already at work: while only He (God) is restraining him at the present time until he would come out from among you. And then the one without Torah will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will destroy by the breath of His mouth and will abolish by the appearance of His coming, whose coming is through the efficiency of the woks of Satan with great power and false signs and wonders and in every unrighteous deception for those who are being destroyed, because they did not accept the love of the truth for them to be saved. And because of this God sends them a working of deception so they would believe a lie, so that all those would be judged who did not believe in the truth, but took pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:7-12 (Power New Testament)

See that no one will take you captive through philosophy and empty deceit according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Messiah... Colossians 2:8 (Power New Testament)

Therefore I say this, and I bear witness in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the heathens walk in the futility of their minds, since they have been darkened by being in their understanding because they have been alienated from the life of God through the ignorance which is in them, because of the insensibility of their hearts, who, when they became callous, gave themselves over to licentiousness in practice of every impurity, with a desire to have more. Ephesians 4:17-19 (Power New Testament)

"One of the troubles with humanity is that it is oftimes too lazy to do its own thinking." Dr. Charles S. Price

George Washington (fragments of the Draft First Inaugural Address, April 1789) - The blessed Religion revealed in the word of God will remain an eternal and awful monument to prove that the best Institution may be abused by human depravity; and that they may even, in some instances be made subservient to the vilest purposes. Should, hereafter, those incited by the lust of power and prompted by the Supineness or venality of their Constituents, overleap the known barriers of this Constitution and violate the unalienable rights of humanity: it will only serve to shew, that no compact among men (however provident in its construction and sacred in its ratification) can be pronounced everlasting an inviolable, and if I may so express myself, that no Wall of words, that no mound of parchm[en]t can be so formed as to stand against the sweeping torrent of boundless ambition on the side, aided by the sapping current of corrupted morals on the other.

Political Correctness: Whose Bright Idea Was That? by Heidi Swander - So in American society today, political correctness (PC) is a masking term for an ideology known as "cultural Marxism," that is, Marxism translated from economic into cultural terms. As such, PC "seeks to alter virtually all the rules, formal and informal, that govern relations among people and institutions," according to the FCF book. ...Now their revolution goal was to undermine the Christian family. Their main weapons for this endeavor were curriculums created for college classrooms and for Hollywood. These curriculums were "anti-Christian to the core -- anti-family and especially anti-father," Botkin said. "They did a complete cultural end-run and now we have a society that is crumbling, confused, hostile to Christianity." "Very few Americans realize that political correctness is in fact Marxism in a different set of clothes," the Free Congress Foundation (FCF) writes in its publication. "Most Americans do not realize that they, through their institutions, are being led by social revolutionaries who think in terms of the continuing destruction of the existing social order in order to create a new one. They now control the public institutions in the United States. Their 'quiet revolution,' beginning with the counter-culture revolution of their youth, is nearing completion." According to the FCF, when cultural Marxists gain power, they "lay penalties on white men and others who disagree with them and give privileges to the groups they favor. Affirmative action is an example." Botkin believes it's not too late to save our society if we are willing to stand up to and against this onslaught by countering it with truth. Call homosexuality a sin; expose abortion as murder; identify affirmative action as reverse discrimination - and do these things in public where the people will hear you. But doing so may mean enduring ridicule, bad press, persecution, Botkin warns.

Redefinition Revolution Gay marriage is about more than Adam and Steve. By Maggie Gallagher - Here’s the conclusion I’ve come to after four-plus years of active participation in the same-sex-marriage debate: Gay marriage is not primarily about marriage. It’s also not about Adam and Steve and their personal practical legal needs. It is about inserting into the law the principle that “gay is the new black” — that sexual orientation should be treated exactly the same way we treat race in law and culture. Gay-marriage advocates say it all the time: People who think marriage is the union of husband and wife are like bigots who opposed interracial marriage. Believe them. They say it because they mean it. The architects of this strategy have targeted marriage because it stands in the way of the America they want to create: They hope to use the law to reshape the culture in exactly the same way that the law was used to reshape the culture of the old racist south. (EarsToHear.net comment: Did the civil rights violations of blacks violate "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God? " Absolutely! Does "entitling" civil rights to same-sex unions violate "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God? " Absolutely! The "Politically Correct" deception has duped many who are "wise in this world," obviously do not posses the wisdom of God. - 1 Corinthians 1 & 2)

Samuel Adams - "[N]either the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt."

Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. 1 Corinthians 15:33

Politically Correct: Unbiblical

Choice: Killing the unborn.

Freedom of speech: profanity, pornography, and worse.

History: Starts today, America's Christian Heritage being rewritten or purposely evaded.

A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both ... Dwight D. Eisenhower

"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" Isaiah 5:20

The show of their countenance is a witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. Say to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him." Isaiah 3:9-11

And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) 2 Peter 2:6-8

 Of note: A Challenge: The Senate voted 98-0, affirming the "Support Our Scouts Act of 2005," to support the Boy Scouts of America having equal access to government lands and facilities. What does this vote reveal about the Senate liberals? Do liberal politicians vote "mainstream" American vs. "mainstream" Democrat, on legislation which involves moral or values issues? Is this to avoid criticism and help future re-election? And is this why liberals prefer a "Christian" litmus test for all judicial nominees, because as an extended arm of the Democratic Party, the despotic branch can instead legislate immorality versus being in Congress and having to comply with democracy?  

Do you take "60 Minutes" at face value? Does the ACLU speak for you?  Are you "mainstream" American or "mainstream" Democrat? Does being "Politically Correct" result in deceptively sacrificing safety, security, and virtue by using half-truths, lies, incomplete facts, and one-sided views? Is being "Politically Correct" also a front for recruitment of ideologies which violate "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God?"   

And how is the Party of Theodore Roosevelt conducting business? Do Republicans speak "political correctness" and carry no stick, when it comes to illegal immigration, border security, social security, Medicare, etc?

Blessed is the man that walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law does he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he does shall prosper. The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind drives away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Psalms 1:1-2:4

For thou art not a God that has pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hate all workers of iniquity. Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: (Falsehood; literally untruth, deceitful, liar, lie, lying) the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre (grave); they flatter with their tongue. Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee. Psalms 5:4-10

Woe to the rebellious children, says the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin: Isaiah 30:1

Politically Correct Hate vs. Hate as defined by God's Righteousness

Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Luke 6:22

If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. He that hates me hates my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father. But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. John 15:18-25

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Matthew 5:10-11

Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. 2 Timothy 3:12-13

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John 3:19-21

"Mainstream" News Media

“[T]he artillery of the press has been leveled against us, charged with whatsoever its licentiousness could devise or dare. These abuses of an institution so important to freedom and science are deeply to be regretted...” Thomas Jefferson

Will politicians and the media remain "Politically Correct" on the War on Terror? Has Islam been "hijacked" by terrorists or does the killing of "infidels" truly stem from the Koran? As "infidels" will we continue to face terrorism until the Muslim world decides it can live with and tolerate other faiths? This unlike Judeo-Christians who remain tolerant of other faiths and allow for individual religious choice, as America's Founders established, despite what some would have us believe.  

London's Telegraph quoting a 20-year-old would-be Palestinian suicide bomber, now residing in an Israeli prison: "For the holy war [jihad] there's no difference between men and women [martyrs]. According to the Koran, male martyrs are welcomed to Paradise by 72 beautiful virgins. ...[A] woman martyr will be the chief of the 72 virgins, the fairest of the fair." And James Taranto points out: "That is to say, the highest aspiration for a fundamentalist Palestinian girl is murder, suicide and prostitution. Has there ever been a more depraved culture?"

The Dallas Morning News: "Today, this editorial board resolves to sacrifice another word -- 'insurgent' -- on the altar of precise language. No longer will we refer to suicide bombers or anyone else in Iraq who targets and kills children and other innocent civilians as 'insurgents.' The notion that these murderers in any way are nobly rising up against a sitting government in a principled fight for freedom has become, on its face, absurd. They drove that point home with chilling clarity Wednesday in a poor Shiite neighborhood. As children crowded around U.S. soldiers handing out candy and toys in a gesture of good will, a bomb-laden SUV rolled up and exploded. These children were not collateral damage. They were targets. The SUV driver was no insurgent. He was a terrorist. People who set off bombs on London trains are not insurgents. We would never think of calling them anything other than what they are -- terrorists. Words have meanings. Whether too timid, sensitive or 'open-minded,' we've resisted drawing a direct line between homicidal bombers everywhere else in the world and the ones who blow up Iraqi civilians or behead aid workers. No more. To call them 'insurgents' insults every legitimate insurgency in modern history. They are terrorists."

Alexander Hamilton warned: "Let us recollect that peace or war will not always be left to our option; that however moderate or unambitious we may be, we cannot count upon the moderation, or hope to extinguish the ambition of others."
